Dunno about Apple, but the HOSTS trick doesn't allow for wildcards, so
you're always playing catch-up as the ad sites add new subdomains.
In the bad old days of Windows NT, there was rather clever little
program that would serve to redirect references to a specific IP gateway
through a filter before passing them along.
It worked quite well and I don't know whatever happened to it. It also
allowed for wildcard expressions.
